Re: Family and the Life of a Game Artist
A good friend of mine in college grew up moving around quite a bit, seeing as both his parents were in the military. Now, at college age, he's been living in the same area for the past few years.

Re: matrix math quickie for artists
You have to recompute all matrices if the object or the player moves so I don't think any engine does selective recomputation for that.
